Who here has the courage to reject the Pericope Adulterae?

Also wrong on so many levels is that the statement assumes there is only one set of "Church Fathers."

Which Church? Which Fathers?

The Church of the East certainly rejects the PA, and so does its Patristic Tradition. I assume the previous writer, Dr. P. I believe it was, considers only the Fathers of the Western Church to be legitimate authorities on the topic of what should and shouldn't be scriptural. I suppose the canon of the Ethiopic Church doesn't really count, nor that of the Church of the East.

By "Universal Church", you have to understand that these people really mean the Roman Rite of the Catholic Church. No other tradition or testimony is valid in their estimation.
